Competition is wonderful and the new AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE is proof of that. The advent of the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 Super has undoubtedly served as a catalyst for AMD to rethink the GRE’s regional exclusivity (it was previously only available in China), resulting in the wider launch of a seriously compelling graphics card.

There is no shortage of contenders for the title of best graphics card from both AMD and Nvidia right now, with the GRE making for another addition to the already crowded midrange market. I’ve spent the past few weeks putting this pixel pusher through its paces, and it’s been a pleasantly surprising experience, in spite of some expected, albeit mild, weaknesses.
